Our experienced permits team handles every shipment individually, ensuring full compliance with state laws and minimizing the risk of fines, delays, and penalties. Indiana's central location in the Midwest, bordering Lake Michigan, makes it a key transit hub for freight moving across the country.

How to Determine if a Load Exceeds Indiana's Legal Limits

How Do You Measure the Size and Weight of a Load Accurately?

Understanding whether your load exceeds legal limits is crucial to determining the permitting process.  Permits for larger loads generally cost more and have longer approval times, so getting the measurements right is essential. Correct tools and proper measuring techniques are vital to avoid fines and delays due to non-compliance. The vehicle should be parked straight on level ground and fully loaded when measuring. The overall length includes the lengths of the truck, trailer, and overhangs, while the width should be taken at the vehicle's widest point. When calculating height, include the trailer's height and the load itself. For the weight, measure the gross weight, the per axle weight, and the load weight.
